The Hawks in the Eastern Cape have arrested three women and a man for allegedly stealing and selling state medicine worth about R200 000.
The medicine had been stolen from various depots of the province’s health department.
The investigation began almost a year ago, after the Hawks received a tip-off that medication meant to be distributed in state hospitals and clinics were being sold by officials who were enriching themselves.
The suspects, all employees of the department, will appear in court in Mthatha tomorrow.
